God save the Queen - June 1, 2012 (part 2)

The Houla massacre may be a turning point in Syria but for now, main backer Russia’s not budging. Also, a fresh revelation contradicts past claims by French politicians on the outbreak of Rwanda’s genocide and a royal row over the merits of monarchies on the eve of Queen Elisabeth’s diamond jubilee.

Host of the show since 2010, this Franco-American was RFI’s West Africa bureau chief from 1995 to 1998. He plays it straight on all issues, except for les Bleus in rugby and ice hockey’s New York Rangers!
